On the relation of Carleson's embedding and the maximal theorem in the context of Banach space geometry (Q2879606)

Let \(L^p(\mathbb R^n;E)\) denote the Bochner \(L^p\)-space with values in the Banach space \(E\). When studying an infinite-dimensional version of the famous Kato square root problem, \textit{T. Hytönen}, \textit{A. McIntosh} and \textit{P. Portal} [J. Funct. Anal. 254, No. 3, 675--726 (2008; Zbl 1143.47013)] realized the need of a Carleson embedding for functions in \(L^p(\mathbb R^n;E)\). In fact, these authors proved two vector-valued generalizations of the classical Carleson embedding theorem, both of them requiring the boundedness of a new vector-valued maximal operator, and the other one also that the underlying Banach space has type \(p\). In the paper under review, it is shown that these conditions are also necessary for the respective embedding theorems. This gives new equivalences between analytic and geometric properties of Banach spaces.
